AROUND THE BASES.
Notes About Southern League Players
for Next Season.

for Next Season.
Manager Powell has not yet succeeded in
signing an additional battery with which to
complete the Charleston team for next
season. He is negotiating with Knowlton
and Parsons and other good, reliable
pitchers, and also with Gillen, the well
known Savannah catcher, but President
Young has received no notice as yet of their
engagement.
Birmingham has signed the following
strong team for 1888: Goldsby, manager
and left field; Duffee, centre; Cahill, right;
Burks short; Lynch, first base; Bittman,
second; Whitehead, third Sullivan, Dooms,
Gibson and Leach, pitchers; Cantillon,
Bailey and Separks catchers. Another first
class pitcher and catcher will probably be
signed later. Goldsby, Cahill, Lynch, Bit
man, Burks, Duffee and Sullivan are well
known in the South and are all first-class
men. OF the others, Dooms and White
head were with Goldsby i'll Topeka last
season, and are excellent all-round players.
Leach and Cantillon are from Chicago and
have played in State Leagues, making
records. Bailey was in the Ohio State
League last season, and is good man. Sc
parks comes from Raleigh, n. c., and has a
good record as an amateur.
Brooklyn wanted Red Bittman, but Birm-
ingham's hustling manager got to Cincin-
natl before Byrne did.
Jack Hayes, the old Nashville second
baseman is at home in Brooklyn, unsigned,
but with several offers He would be a good
man for Charleston to sign in the place of
Peak, as he has a better record, both in bat
ting and in fielding.
New Orleans has a number of big games
in prospect for next spring The local club
will play against Detroit on Saturday,
March 81, and the Browns on Sunday. On
Monday and Tuesday the Browns and De-
troit viii play the two first games of the
spring worlds championship series The
Washingtons will open there March 5, and
play week. Cincinnati will proably be
there on Feb. 10.

GIVE THE FULL ADDRESS.
How to Get an Express Package to It's
Destination Quick.

The Express Company is beginning to
feel the holiday rush, and this week the
messengers will have their hands full of
Christmas packages. The Southern Ex-
press Office here is preparing for the rush,
and with its excellent system Of handling
packages, the office anticipates no diff
Guilty One of tho things which many
shippers do not think of and which greatly
facilitates and aids prompt delivery is the
manner of addressing packages. Many pack
ages and i'll fact the majority, are
simply marked with the name of the con-
signee and the town or city and State. The
street number is hardly ever used. If it
was the company would be able to deliver
the packages several hours earlier than it
does. In Savannah small packages are de-
hvered from the trains instead of being
taken first to the company's Office, and if the
full address were given the drivers would
be able to deliver the package without the
loss of time consumed in hunting up the adj
dress from directory or by personal in
Oulry.

CENTRAL's RU MoRED SCOOP.
Talk That 1t Has Got the Savannah
Dublin and Western.

Talk That it Has Got the Savannah
Dublin and Western
There has been rumor for day or two
that the Central railroad has secured con
troll of the Savannah, Dublin and Western
A director of the latter road was asked last
night what foundation the rumOr had. He
said that his board had made no agreement
with the Central. He understood, how
ever, that the United States Construction
Company, which has undertaken to build
and equip the road, has had some CORE
spondence with the Central, people with the
view to transferring its interests to them.
He was not informed, however, whether it
had succeeded in doing So
The rumors probably have considerable
foundation If the Construction Company
settles with the contractors it will be in a
position to turn over to the Central pretty
big interest-an interest big enough per-
haps to enable the Central to do what it de-
sires with the Savannah Dublin and West
ern property.
